Yoga - Sanskrit names vs Western names

zigzagbuddha @zigzagbuddha (4601) • United States 8 Dec 08

I read something somewhere that made a joke about Yoga being more popular in America than in India. I don't know if that's true, but it would sure be funny if it was. Personally, I do not adhere to the spiritual practices of...

This morning I got up at around 10:30AM. I was in the mood for blue so I put on a pair of dark blue cotton pants and a baby blue zipper sweater and went for a jog down by the river. The river was clean, the moss was green and...

zigzagbuddha @zigzagbuddha (4601) • United States 27 Aug 08

My daughter is a fan of all those vampire books that are basically romance novels. She read one the other night that was for 'young adult' readers and insisted that I read it too. Even there the first kiss was described so vividly...
